If you are looking for a good snapshot for your photo album, a breathtaking view over the roofs of the city, or just want to exercise your legs, here are some places worth visiting.

Try the Whispering Gallery in the dome of the Marble Church, a wind-swept climb up the spiralling outside stairs of Our Saviour's Church, watch the pigeons circle over the City Hall Square, or wander up the winding access to the top of the Round Tower.

In clear weather you may glimpse the Swedish coast or go star watching from an old observatory after dark.
